A Home of Your Own

You want to have
A place all our own
To mold and to shape
And to make into "home"

Away from our families
And away from the stress
A home with no pressures
No one to impress

Large windows to let
The sunlight pour through
We'd bask in the warmth
With nothing to do

It all sounds so perfect
We'd live by the beach
But it breaks my heart
It's a dream I can't reach

Now it isn't much
And lacks a bit of charm
But all I can offer
Is a "home" in my arms
